Tyler & Ashley

This young couple met back on the mainland when fate brought them together after Tyler's return from deployment in Afghanistan. Home for leave, he went to visit friends in Wisconsin, never imagining he would meet his future wife! That was a year ago and now they are able to say they are happily married and adjusting to their new lives together in Hawaii. Their fun, playful personalities were evident throughout, as was their love! We thought we hit a roadblock at one point when it started to rain in the middle of shooting. Just as we started walking to cover though, unsurprisingly in Hawaii, the rain ceased and we turned to see a full, bright rainbow stretching from one side of the beach to the other. It only lasted about 30 seconds, but that was enough to pose for a quick pic and I'm so glad we did because it's one of my favorites! We closed with clear skies and a beautiful sunset starting to sink behind the mountains. Thanks to Tyler and Ashley for a really fun shoot and for letting me experiment and get creative! Some things worked, some didn't, but hey, if my clients are willing to indulge my crazy ideas, sometimes they turn out being pretty cool :)
